Do you want your recently killed in action son/daughter/father/mother/brother/sister to come back from the dead?

Do you want to not have parkinson's disease anymore?

Would you like Rush Limbaugh to shut up?

These are all examples of questions that have the obvious "yes" answer. Yet we all know THEY ARE NOT GOING TO HAPPEN. It's called the difference between what you want and what you can realistically have.

It is so typical of conservatives to ask this kind of a nonsensical question as a way to make their "point". They are a bunch of bratty children who throw tantrums if they don't get what they want.

We all want America to "win" (define that for me!) in Iraq. Maybe in la-la land, it may come to pass. In the real world, it is not going to happen.

The guy had total control over the government and the military, but now the bastard is gone and his military is decimated. We did our job. Now it's the Iraqis' turn to stand up and determine their own fate.

Obviously we could nuke the whole country and make a radioactive parking lot/graveyard of it, but what kind of a "win" is that? We're not going to make the Iraqi people into western Europeans, no matter what happens, so what's the best-case scenario? A squalid religious dictatorship like Saudi Arabia, which protects American oil interests while actively encouraging terrorism abroad?

Bill would have gone off on his Bush is not evil and America is not the problem standard rejoinder and not answer but it would be good to pin down Number One Frontline Fighter Bill on his definition of win in Iraq.

And Bill America did not invade Iraq to destory the 200 man Ansar al-Islam "terrorists".
